    ajamu and hanshaw arent exactly house hold names but either where really slouches,


    hanshaw beat kelly pavlik in the olympic trials and has a win over kingsley ikeke


    i think roy may have a chance if he fights a guy like clinton woods for a title.

    its true, roy would be a huge underdog against the ageless hopkins

    but im sure it would be reasonably competitive in the first few rounds and would be good for one last big fight for roy

    what next for roy?

    Fight Hopkins if he beats Winky cause I know Winky wont fight Jones. And Vice Versa.

    Possibly Woods again. Or Erdei!

    Take the fight with Trinidad whip that ass in front of a mainstream audience and hope Glen Johnson wins a belt in that time then rematch him and right the wrong.

    Erdei would kill Roy. So would Woods.

    Woods is a lot better then when he fought Roy and Roy's alot worse.

    I'd still tip Jones over Woods, but it'd be a lot closer than the first time! Good fight for Roy, actually. Leads to a mandatory with Johnson, and if successful (both Woods and Johnson would be pick-em; Johnson would be the favourite though) he'd have a title that could lure other *names* (as long as he stays away from the very top. Dawson would eat him, for example).

    Roy would bust Woods' ass still i think, Anyway Jones should set up a fight with Hopkins regardless if Hopkins wins or lose, It'd be huge either way.. a decade and a half in the making some would argue.

    Glen Johnson is probably the worse fight for RJJ on workrate alone. Roy's shell defense can be broken by volume punching or going to the body.

    GJ TKO RJJ 5

    Sadly thats true but if RJJ beats Trinidad which he should I wanna see him try and avenge that loss Johnsons lack of speed should give RJJ a great chance if he keeps it in the center of the ring if not Johnson should smash him agian cause RJJ at this point cant hurt Johnson but who can ? To get his respect.

    Assuming Hopkins beats Winky, THAT'S the fight.

    I dont want to see him fight anyone. Johnson would have gotten owned by Jones 4 years ago.

    Well Jones of 4 years was cutting down to 175 and the decline really kicked in their and it was only a year later Johnson was destroying him. So maybe you mean 5. Im a Jones fan but NOT delusional.

    I disagree. RJJ has problems with pressure fighters. This incarnation of B-Hop is not a pressure type guy. I think a Hopkins v. RJJ would be a potential snoozefest with RJJ dancing and potshotting all night long.
